About this home

SOLD BEFORE PRINT. 225 Ridge is an elegant and spacious 6 bedroom, 3.1 bath center-entry colonial designed in 1920 by renowned Winnetka and Chicago architect, Chester Howe Walcott. Situated on an oversized, professionally landscaped property (.49 acre) with mature plantings, this beautiful home is ideally located close to town, schools and parks. Upon entering the broad and gracious foyer with its beautiful staircase, your eye is immediately drawn to the light-filled living room (28 X 16), which opens through the original two sided fireplace and flanking doorways to the adjacent sun-flooded family room (26 X 26) with cathedral ceiling. A formal entertainment sized dining room, cozy study, powder room, butler's pantry, kitchen and three-sided breakfast room complete the first floor. Both front and back stairs lead to the second floor with 4 generous sized bedrooms, 2 single bedrooms, 3 full baths and abundant closet and storage space. A full staircase leads to the unfinished 3rd floor attic. A remarkable historic home in the ideal location awaits you! Estate sale. Sold AS IS.

Zoning

Single-Family Residential District

The requirements set forth in this chapter, together with other provisions set forth in the Building Code of the Village, have been adopted in order to provide for a single-family residential environment of relatively intense suburban character, where the degree of improvements upon an individual parcel of land is in approximate balance with the landscape area of such parcel of land. Due to the mature character of development within this district, such requirements are also intended to assure that future modifications to existing structures, or the replacement of existing structures with new structures, will not alter the scale and general character of established neighborhoods. In this regard, the requirements set forth in this chapter are further intended to foster development which is compatible, in general, with the character of existing single-family development within the immediate neighborhood with respect to external architectural scale, landscaping and other site improvements.
